It's that time of year to dress up in your scariest costume, whether your a witch, ghost, mummy, Lehman Brothers CEO or Frankenstein....this week's Welk episode from 1978 should put you in the trick-or-treating mood.

Here are the highlights, and some great costumes as well!

Bob Ralston as Count Chocula plays the organ to "Satan Takes A Holiday"

Norma and Jimmy is going medevial in the number "Make Believe"....

Only the Shadow knows when it's time for the cast to sing, "Me And My Shadow".....

The Aldridge Sisters and the Otwell Twins are riding in the saddle again with "Ghost Riders In The Sky"....

And what are Gail, Sandi and Mary Lou up to this time?

I think they are singing "This Old House".

Until next week....keep a song in your heart and don't get rocks in your trick-or-treat bag (like Charlie Brown does).

About Me

The blogmeister is also the webmaster behind the very successful Welk Musical Family.com. I have been a fan of Lawrence Welk since I was a youngster (not too long ago!) and have watched (and taped) his show every Saturday night on my local PBS station, WGTE and sometimes WBGU. My hometown and current residence is Toledo, Ohio and in recent years, I have attended many of their live concerts and had the chance to meet many of the wunnerful music makers as well.
